I Had My Stomach Stapled At 14 Years Old. That Surgery Didn't 'Cure' Me — Far From It.
Advertisement AdvertisementAdvertisement AdvertisementAt the time, pediatric weight loss surgery was quite rare. But to my doctors, my fat body made it acceptable — even necessary. While GLP-1s often lead to weight loss, research shows that the weight comes back when the medication is stopped. Similarly, long-term studies on weight loss surgery reveal that many patients eventually regain a significant portion of the weight they lost. Although many people assume that a fat body is inherently unhealthy, research shows that body size by itself isn’t a reliable predictor of mortality risk.

'The Bear' Is So Triggering For Many Of Us
The acclaimed FX/Hulu show has plenty of fans, but for those of us with firsthand experience of suicide loss, it is particularly poignant. The retreating into the daily grind and the rehashing of toxic family dynamics all reads like a road map to survivors’ grief. Yet, “The Bear” translates character development and plot into a much larger message: Service to others, and to our art, transforms us.

Stephen Colbert on The Late Show earlier this week CBSThe Late Show host Stephen Colbert brought back his “Escalator Investigator” character for a second day this week, as US president Donald Trump continued to complain about an escalator at the United Nations. “Ever since Trump got back into office, he’s been waging a campaign of vengeance against his enemies, who he believes have been trying to take him down,” Colbert said. “Now, he’s focused all of his rage on the one foe who refused to take him up, and that is the U.N. escalator.”AdvertisementThe escalator stopped suddenly when Trump and first lady Melania Trump reached it on Tuesday.

Trump Reignited My Sex Life: Shared Attention And Intimacy
They gave my day closure — a safe feeling that someone principled was paying attention to what was going on in our country. “Double orgasm on a school night” sex. ), and because we both believed sex was special — so special it should be done and developed with a special person. None of this is because we’ve become younger or more flexible or started having tantric sex (though never say never). It’s because we’ve come to see each other again — not through the fog of exhaustion or distraction, but through the clarity of shared attention.

Longevity Experts Say This ‘Healthy’ Habit Can Take Years Off Your Life
But there’s one well-intentioned habit in particular that longevity experts say can actually take years off your life instead of adding more to it: eating too much animal-based protein. In general, there are two types of proteins: animal-based proteins and plant-based proteins. Research has shown that plant-based proteins are healthier than animal-based proteins. “Excessive consumption of animal-based proteins can actually accelerate aging and undermine cellular health, contrary to popular belief,” she said. This not only compromises heart health but also affects overall cellular function and longevity,” Bhanote said.

The Surprising Way Men's Brains Change After They Become Parents
Dads’ brains change too — and it appears that these changes have an impact on their sleep and mental health. Saxbe and her fellow researchers found that fathers lost brain volume — their brains grew smaller — after they became parents. It’s important to note that a loss of brain volume, which sounds negative, doesn’t correspond with a loss of brain function, or of cognitive decline. A loss in brain volume isn’t the only physiological change that dads who engage in caregiving undergo. Advertisement“Prolactin is commonly elevated in vertebrate fathers who help care for their young, suggesting it often helps support fathers’ care,” Gettler said.

The Republican Effort To Remake Schools In God’s Image
“The church, as they understand it, is in competition with public schools for the minds of their children,” Clarkson said. A law passed this year bans LGBTQ+ themed clubs and other diversity, equity and inclusion groups in public schools. “Patriot Mobile Action believes to save America, we must save our Public Schools,” the website reads. The annual gathering of conservative lawmakers and influencers was held in Dallas, a few months after the Keller school board races. The 900-page playbook, put together in the lead-up to the 2024 election, details the policies the next conservative president should push for, including inserting religion into public schools and taxpayer-funded private religious schools.
